Welcome Turner Edward!

Guest post from my parents:

We are proud to welcome Turner Edward into the world.  Turner was born at 8:27pm on Monday, March 21, after a very long day of labor. Turner weighed a whopping 8 lbs, 11 ounces at birth and is 21 inches long. 

Mother and baby are very tired but otherwise doing pretty well. Everyone at the hospital keeps commenting on what a strapping young baby Turner is.  He is named for his mother's family, the Turners and the Washburns with Turner as a middle name, as well as for his late Papa Edward.

Mom and Dad have been filling Turner in on how excited his older brother and sister are to meet him and how much fun they will all have together, but we'll be at the hospital for a few more days before we can take him home.  In the meantime, brother Mitch and sister Hazel are holding down the fort at home.

Hazel and I can't wait to meet Turner!  I'm sure Mom and Dad will be posting more pictures in the next few days.
